title: Editors
## What should editors do?
Editors are users of rank Editor or above.
They are responsible for ensuring that the package listings of ContentDB are useful.
For this purpose, they can/will:
* Review and approve packages.
* Edit any package - including tags, releases, screenshots, and maintainers.
* Create packages on behalf of authors who aren't present.
Editors should make sure they are familiar with the
[Package Inclusion Policy and Guidance](/policy_and_guidance/).
## ContentDB is not a curated platform
It's important to note that ContentDB isn't a curated platform, but it also does have some
requirements on minimum usefulness. See 2.2 in the [Policy and Guidance](/policy_and_guidance/).
## Editor Work Queue
The [Editor Work Queue](/todo/) and related pages contain useful information for editors, such as:
* The package, release, and screenshot approval queues.
* Packages which are outdated or are missing tags.
* A list of forum topics without packages.
Editors can create the packages or "discard" them if they don't think it's worth adding them.
## Editor Notifications
Editors currently receive notifications for any new thread opened on a package, so that they
know when a user is asking for help. These notifications are shown separately in the notifications
interface, and can be configured separately in Emails and Notifications.
